Overview

About 4b

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

4b is a semi-detached house in Pavenham, Bedford, Bedford (MK43 7PP). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 805 sq ft) and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 sits 202.2% above the 2010 sale of £67,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 51.7% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
